Faith Formation & Confirmation
Forming disciples to know, love, and serve God.
This year we will be adding a new component to our formation program. Children are more likely to put into practice the faith they see lived out day-to-day at home.
Christ and His Church call parents to be “the first and foremost educators of their children” [Gravissimum Educationis, 3]. Family catechesis aids families in becoming the domestic churches they are called to be. [Lumen Gentium]
At St. Joseph we are here to aid you and your family within your domestic church. To assist you, there will be monthly parent formation coinciding with your child’s formation class. This is great opportunity to have fellowship and discussion with other parents raising their children in the Catholic faith.
To learn more on how your family is a domestic church, please watch this short video.
In Christ,
